Biscuits have been taken off North East shelves after pieces of wire were found in them.

A statement by Kraft, who makes the biscuits, said: "A small number of packs of Dairylea Lunchables Stack'ems have been found to contain small fragments of wire in a cracker biscuit. This is as a result of an isolated manufacturing incident at a third party supplier.

"Only the cracker may be affected, the other food items are safe to eat.

"We apologise sincerely for any inconvenience or concern this may have caused."
